Now, every lobby group keeps pushing their sketchy agenda, knowing well that they will eventually pass it. Worst case, it will be passed bit by bit.

What do they have to hide, exactly? After all, their logic tells us that they shouldn't worry if they have nothing to hide, right? And if anyone should have their chats publicly available, the number 1 people should be the scumbags that are pushing for this so adamantly. Let's see them lead by example, then maybe I would consider this as anything other than a draconian power grab.

The ruling should come with a timeout period; they're not allowed to try anything similar again for 20 years or whatever, and even then only if circumstances have changed.

There will be a day when this passes, and again it will be a loss for humans and a win for (American) tech giants.

when those students enter the workforce, they expect the surveilance. they grew up under chat control so they're used to it. get with the times to live and die another day

The title needs to be corrected. It's borderline maliciously incorrect.
